Luckily these kiddos and their families braved the AZ summer heat for some sunny outdoor pictures. As my camera was melting in my hands, or so it felt, we got some great pictures. Just think only another month of this 100 degree weather (we hope!). In the meantime I continue to search for shade or run for the indoors.

Finally, it seemed like it was so far away and now I'm already back from Audrey Woulard's photography workshop. I had an amazing weekend with a great group of photographers. It was such a wonderful experience to have the opportunity to learn from Audrey. I've been admiring her work for a long time now and I finally got to see her in action! I learned so much and have lots to practice now. I am so happy to have met so many wonderful photographers and thanks so much to Julie and Natalie for letting me tag along with them all weekend! This was my first trip alone so it was great to have some new friends. We got to practice some shots with Audrey's models. Here are a few pictures I took. I can't wait for my next photo shoots next weekend. In the meantime my boys will be bombarded by the camera!

I just got back from Audrey Woulard's workshop in Chicago. These are pictures from my hotel. What a beautiful view I had at Hotel 71. This is about all I saw of Chicago since we were so busy with photography. My husband called us photography NERDS when a group of us went back to the hotel business center after dinner just to look at each other's photography websites. I had a blast and learned so much. I will post more from the actual workshop.
